You know, the LPC could do the funniest thing...

1)After March 31st, declare the buyback a resounding success and jerk themselves off over how many 'assault rifles' they collected. Suspend collection

2) "We are now turning our attention to modernizing firearm regulation for licensed, trained and trusted owners. Our approach will be based on a firearm's fitness for purpose and not just on it's name."

3) Crib the CPC's simplified system, call it something else

4) Pass it with unanimous support from the CPC and most of his own party

Carney had a chance to blame the previous guy and say he won’t be going through with it.

The fact he’s doubled down means any cancellation will be seen as admitting they were wrong.

The liberals have no problem pointing out other peoples mistakes but they’ll never acknowledge their own.

The only way I see out of this for the LPC is to come up with some bs excuse and hang it on Gary's shoulders and throw him under the bus. But I don't see that happening... yet.

I'm still kinda surprised the anti gun movement didn't flare up after the BC tragedy.

I don't think Gary has any value at all in this government. 4d chess he's being setup to be super well lubed to roll under that bus.
